When it is sunny, the sunlight shines to the blue sea level, reflects to the mountain, and that is origin of the name of Blue Mountain.
Coffee trees in Blue Mountain can hardly grow at the altitude that is more than 5000 meters. Blue Mountain coffee comes from three places: St Andrews, Portland and Saint Thomas. Almost all of them are with the altitude of 1000 meters, and only Blue Mountain coffee beans are packed with casks.
There are great differences in temperatures during day at night in Blue Mountain. Mist wreathes around the mountain in the afternoon. The unique soil, climate and geographic conditions overshadow the coffee trees while providing sufficient water to make the coffee extraordinary.
The picking time of Blue Mountain coffee is September to April in the next year, workers start picking from the place of low altitude while the one at high altitude will be picked at the latest. The reason why blue mountain coffee so precious is that every single coffee fruit is all picked and supervised by hand. Generally speaking, it is time to pick the coffee fruits if they are red enough.
